Research Fellow in Theoretical Neuroscience (Gatsby Unit)
Closing date: 30-Jun-2024 The Gatsby Unit invites applications for a postdoctoral training fellowship under Dr Agostina Palmigiano, focussed on developing theoretical approaches to investigate the mechanisms underlying sensory, motor or cognitive computations. You will be responsible for the primary execution of the project (with opportunities for co-supervision of students), presentation of results at conferences and seminars, and publication in suitable media. This post is initially funded for 2 years with the possibility of a one-year extension at the end of the period. You should have a strong quantitative background in theoretical neuroscience, machine learning, statistics, computer science, physics or engineering; a record of publication in highly respected journals and conferences and must hold a PhD in a relevant field by the agreed start date of the position. For detailed information on the role and how to apply, please visit http://www.ucl.ac.uk/gatsby/vacancies under 'Research Fellow (Palmigiano group)'. Agostina will also be at COSYNE 2024; please get in touch (a.palmigiano 'at' ucl.ac.uk) to set up informal chats with her if interested! About the Gatsby Unit Established in 1998 through a generous grant from the Gatsby Charitable Foundation, the Gatsby Unit has been a pioneering centre for research in theoretical neuroscience and machine learning. The Unit fosters a highly collaborative and open research culture where regular unit-wide events allow everyone to get involved in everything and be aware of what others are doing. In addition, the Unit provides a unique multidisciplinary research environment with strong links to the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour, the ELLIS Unit at UCL, and other neuroscience and machine learning groups at UCL and beyond. -- I-Chun Lin Scientific Programme Manager Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, UCL
